79 Kingston Dunes- NEW AND IMPROVED- Shipyard Sanctuary!

79 Kingston Dunes – Shipyard Sanctuary!

Shipyard Sanctuary is a stunning six-bedroom, five-and-a-half-bath designer home—an easy walk or bike ride to the beach! The main-level common area is wheelchair accessible, and one bedroom and bath are also designed for accessibility.

The main level features a spacious great room with an all-new kitchen, large island seating four, a roomy dining area, and a family space with a big-screen TV. A half bath adds convenience.

Three bedrooms on the main floor each have ensuite bathrooms and are set apart for privacy. The primary suite at the back has a king bed and double-vanity bath with shower. The second bedroom offers a queen bed and tub/shower combo. The third, fully wheelchair accessible, includes an adjustable queen bed and accessible bath with grab bars and roll-in shower.

Upstairs, the brand-new second level includes three bedrooms and a bonus room. The first has a king bed and ensuite with shower; the second has two extra-long twin beds (no closet); and the third is a bunk room with four built-in bunks. The large bonus room offers a big-screen TV, plenty of seating, and a dry bar with microwave and beverage fridge. A hall bath with tub/shower completes the floor.

Outdoors, enjoy the private pool (heatable for a fee) and expanded deck. Play corn hole, dine alfresco, or relax in the hammock or Adirondack chairs. This beautiful home in the quiet, private Shipyard community is the perfect retreat—just minutes from the beach, Coligny Plaza, and Shelter Cove.

Fall Break Family Vacation

We had a wonderful time on Hilton Head Island. The house was very nice and more than met our needs for the week. It was a short walk to the beach, but if you didn’t go to the beach, there was a pool at the house for our use. One member in our family is a quadriplegic and the main floor was quite accessible for him. I would highly recommend this property.

Great family vacation

We had such a fun time for our first time at Hilton Head. The home had plenty of room for all 14 of us and the kitchen was amazing. The bike ride to the beach access was easy (not for young kids though). But we had alot of stuff so the guys had to drive our stuff to the beach in the morning and set up then we would all meet them shortly after. Kids loved the pool also.

A fun girls 70th birthday celebration

What a fabulous home to stay in at Hilton Head Island. 7 high school girlfriends celebrating turning 70 this year. The home was absolutely perfect for our group. It is a beautiful home with lots of beds & bathrooms, open concept and updated furnishings and decor. Management checked in with us periodically to make sure all was well.

Wonderful Experience in Shipyard

We vacation on Hilton Head several times a year and have stayed in many different rental villas and homes depending on the size of our group. Aside from the fact that this was a beautiful home, we were most impressed with the property management team at Beachside Getaway for their responsiveness and caring attitude. They checked in with us before, during and after our stay to make sure we were happy, and I can tell you, we WERE happy. Everyone in our group of 10 thought this was the best place we've ever stayed on the island. The house was immaculate and the pool was clear and beautiful. The open living design of the main floor was perfect for our large family and we also enjoyed the layout of the bedrooms. New appliances and designer interior decor were the icing on the cake. The only issues we had were there were no kitchen towels when we arrived and one clogged drain, and both of these were quickly resolved by Beachside within half an hour. I cannot recommend 79 Kingston Dunes and its outstanding management team at Beachside enough for large groups or families and we will definitely be booking again next time.

The home is perfect for a large crowd. We had relatives coming in all throughout the week. Only issue was that you only could park 3 cars at the home and had to find other parking. The kitchen is well stocked and a plus was the wine cooler. Decor and upkeep on house

Great stay, thanks for being so accommodating

Had to change plans at the last minute and ended up at 14 Egret which was perfect for our family. Great beach access and proximity to Coligny. Great communication from owner and rental agency. Will book again on our next trip to HHI.

Golf Trip House

we held our 28th annual golf trip. The house was perfect for us. It is great to be able to share a house that accommodates a large group. It is always nice to be able sit and visit as most of us see each other one time a year. It was the perfect house.

Nice HHI experience

Was a convenient location for beach access and all things Hilton Head. Short car ride to beach parking. Also could be done walking if the group is capable of about 1.5 miles. Property was large enough for 8 and well maintained.

From the check in process to the departure process Beachside Getaway was a pleasure to work with. They provided all of the necessary information for us, and we felt at home when we were there. The property was exactly as pictured and was beautiful. While the weather didn't cooperate as expected, we still made use of the large and comfortable main living area to cozy up on the couches and watch movies and we even swam in the pool in the rain one day! The walk to the beach was pleasant, and we walked there nearly every morning. Unfortunately, it was too much for one of our friends with knee issues, so we were grateful for the drop off circle close to the Shipyard private beach access, and the close parking available. If the weather had been better, there would have been a lot of competition for those few parking spots, but I think we might have been one of the few brave groups to hit the beach on the two days it wasn't pouring from the remnants of Erin. Thanks for providing us with such a beautiful home to have our girls' weekend!

Perfect Family home

We were able to enjoy this home for a week's stay on HHI. The location was great, and the property management was very responsive when we had issues arise. The rooms were very quiet, which was great as we did have a 7-month-old with us. The only disappointment was the pool water was a bit chilly to use. The hammock was a big hit by everyone. The beach was amazing. The smoke alarms are heat sensitive as well in the kitchen area- lol. We did arrive in torrential rain, and the walkway to the stairs was flooded but one can't control Mother Nature.

As advertised

This place is perfect for a large family or group. It is exactly as advertised and as "turn key" as any place I have stayed. The property management company was also wonderful to work with and even checked in with us to see if we needed anything. It's a real great combination. Only things I would suggest are more personal preference things and would take it from a 4.8 to a 5 star stay. Would absolutely go back!
